Cement Plant in Bhutan. Approximate location 26.82182, 89.18314.

Cement PlantBhutanCO₂ reported

Lhaki Cement Gomtu Cement Plant is a cement plant in Bhutan with a reported capacity of 219,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Lhaki Cement. By capacity it ranks #3 of 3 cement plants tracked in Bhutan. It emits about 107,531 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 25,066 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 36% above the median cement plant.

W kontekście: jak ta instalacja się porównuje

Przy 219,000 t of cement, Lhaki Cement Gomtu Cement Plant jest poniżej medianę cement plant w Bhutan (602,250 t of cement). Jego CO₂ na jednostkę pojemności wynosi w przybliżeniu 22% powyżej medianę cement plant. Podsektor: cement. Jako cement plant, wymaga intensywnego ciepła procesowego (typowo 800–1400°C) do swoich głównych operacji przemysłowych — ciepła, które musi być dostarczane przez kotły, piece lub spalanie bezpośrednie, a straty przez nieisolowane zbiorniki i rury stanowią zmarnowane paliwo. Modułowa izolacja demontowalna może zmniejszyć te straty o 80–96%, chłodząc powierzchnie do ≤45°C, z zwrotem inwestycji często poniżej 2 lat. Cementownie ogrzewają wapień do 1.400°C w piecach obracających się — jeden z najgorętszych procesów przemysłowych — i muszą precyzyjnie kontrolować temperaturę na całej długości pieca.
